Oh, how proud one should beto live in America, the land of the free,where so many braveyoung fought to savewhat our founding fathers gavewhen proclaiming their standagainst their ruler's suffocating hand.

Time and again each generationof our great, blessed nationheeded Her motherly callto unite as one against allwho dared try to make Her fall,prevailing and keeping the USA strong and tall.

The same can be said tooabout helping our foreign friends, old and new,being faithful and trueto what we all hold dear,which is hoped for all others far and nearwith intentions that are honorable and sincere.

Oh, how proud one should be...thinking of Lady Liberty,seeing Old Glory waving under a clear blue sky,celebrating with family on Fourth of July,remembering America's fallen on Memorial Day,supporting our troops in harm's way,singing, "Oh, say can you see...",and just knowing you are an American, truly free.
